What are Nanomaterials Used in Hydrogen Purification?
Several types of nanomaterials are employed in hydrogen purification, including:
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs): Known for their high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity, CNTs are effective for adsorbing impurities from hydrogen. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs): These materials have highly tunable pore sizes and large surface areas, making them excellent for gas separation. Graphene: With its single-layer structure and high surface area, graphene is effective in filtering hydrogen. Nanoporous Zeolites: These materials have uniform pore sizes that can selectively adsorb specific gases, including hydrogen.
